I was commuting this morning and came up to an OCTA bus. **** was leaking some sort of hydraulic fluid and left a mean stripe down the right hand side of the northbound carpool lane. I hit the slick going around the right hand bend just past the 55 interchange and skated about a foot in my lane before traction resumed.

I know there are some local riders in here so keep out of the HOV lane for a few days in that area.

 

yikes... if it's in the middle of the lane it may be there even longer.

 

thanks for the info, that is scary

 

We must have been there about the same time. About 5:15am, got up behind an OCTD bus, of course no passengers. Actually, I get up behind a car that got up behind it. The car started spraying his windshield wiper fluid. What the heck... He finally got over at the ElToro-Y and that put me in back of the bus. All kinds of liquid sh*t was coming out the back of it, all over my helmet, face shield, front of bike... I gingerly went around it. Got to work and had to wash the helmet with paper towels/soap/water. NASTY stuff.

 

huh. i 'know a girl' that lives in tustin. she's one of those chicks that will show up at a rally point and pick a bike to ride pillion just for ***** and giggles.
